PMA2020

• PMA2020 household surveys could be fielded every 12 months instead of every six months.
• Stakeholders would like data from the service delivery points more frequently than annually.
• Stakeholders want more geographically granular data.

Track20

• The program is on target to achieve most of its original objectives.
• Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) officers are often stretched very thin, and there is a need for continued capacity-building among decisionmakers to facilitate data use.

Data Use

• Gates Foundation staff felt that the demand for data had come from the global level, making it more difficult to integrate data needs arising at the country level.
• Nonetheless, in-country stakeholders asserted that the data were invaluable for a variety of uses, including program planning and forecasting commodity needs.

Data Maturity

• In-country respondents noted the inadequate capacity of some decisionmakers in their country to interpret data.
• PMA2020 and Track20 fell into the developing level of data maturity in most countries. Data management, data analysis, organizational readiness, institutionalization, ownership, and data use can be improved.

Sustainability

• Financial sustainability is critical for PMA2020 because of the resource intensity of launching surveys.
• Technical sustainability ratings highlighted the need to ensure hardware and software maintenance, and interview data highlighted the need for more well-trained M&E personnel.
• Operational sustainability is enabled by leadership buy-in and cultural acceptability and impeded when key stakeholders do not understand or use the data, policymaker needs are not met, and local communities are not consulted with regard to survey planning and implementation.
• Data culture is enabled when data use impacts outcomes and is impeded when there are inadequate numbers of data professionals with sufficient technical capabilities.
